Why would the right-wing want unity with the Dems when they smell an opportunity to gain political advantage with a wedge issue? They failed at doing so with SS, so this presents another chance for them.

it appears we are right about Republican motives for politicizing this issue... ABCNews has a copy of a Republican memo, outlining the reasons the GOP should make this an issue...

quote:
ABC News obtained talking points circulated among Senate Republicans explaining why they should vote to intervene in the Schiavo case. Among them, that it is an important moral issue and the "pro-life base will be excited," and that it is a "great political issue — this is a tough issue Democrats."

And for another thing nobody snd I mean nobdy as ever heard this woman say to kill her off if she is in a state like this. Her husband is the only one that claims this.

for what it's worth, I mostly agree with you about wanting her to die by injection rather than starvation... but it really doesn't make a difference because if she is PVS, starvation won't cause her any pain or discomfort anyways.

plus I don't think you are a fundie whacko or anything... I think you are a moral person with the best intentions.

Please note, Delay disavowed knowledge of the points and called them disgusting. Anyone could have circulated them and its not like abcnews is riding high on a wave of honesty and impartiality.

Now, if someone could explain why the GOP need to stir up the religious right. Its not like they're gonna vote democrat for the forseeable future.

ABCNews dishonest? Nice ad hominem fallacy argument.

But I understand you completely. You don't have any facts to present, so you try to discredit the source.

It's fairly obvious. The Repukes want their base to be in a constant state of mouth-frothing attack. Plus, the second people stop worrying about moral issues, they might start to realize that the GOP's right wing economic agenda is bad for America.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Well, given the way our state government is, it's certain that were she to be euthanized, they'd have the person in jail quicker than you can get Falwell to say homosexuality is evil. Of course, Pinellas county is significantly more liberal than the rest of the state, so it might be a safe bet.

If it was me, I'd just fly her to Oregon, and have her euthanized there.

I was just about to come out right now and call the family pussies, but the news just reported the sister was trying to feed their sister.

The family should attempt by any means possible to feed their daughter. Including the use of force. And then when in prison they should stage a hunger strike.

But I guess not all people are politically minded.

you steal the feeding machine and try to hook it up to her belly button (the news stories show the feeding tube going into her belly button).

I just like to see effort and drama.

wasn't there a denzel washington movie where he takes extreme action to get medical care for his son?

I want to see violence on the part of the family .

I really wish lawmakers would fight as hard to save the lives of those who can't afford health care as they do for a woman who will never recover.

Of course I dont trust him, he's a politician. It just doesnt make sense to circulate something so stupid and then have Delay immediately disown it. If some GOP staffer did write it, it's too easy to make the GOP and Delay look bad. Delay isnt that (politically) stupid.

First how do you let the woman die? Starvation isnt the answer. This is a hard one While I have agreed she hasnt been a whole person for a long time there needs to be an alternative to starvation.
